Paul Beyond the Judaism/Hellenism Divide

This volume does away with the traditional strategy of playing Judaism and Hellenism against each other as a context to understand Paul. This aim is reached in two ways: (1) in essays that display the ideological underpinnings of a Jewish and Hellenistic Paul in historical and modern scholarly interpretations of him, and (2) in essays that use case studies from the Corinthian correspondence that draw freely on Jewish and Greco-Roman contextual material to illuminate this Pauline phenomena.
